i gave each of my documents a special field named date and I put in a
normalized Lucene date with a precision of one day. This date is
yyyymmdd so that it can be sorted. having done that, however, I am
unsure how to ask Lucene to sort on that date, but I'll figure it out
in time or someone will tell me.
